Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
----------------
No package is available for Ubuntu 16.04. OCRmyPDF 8.0 and newer require
Python 3.7. Ubuntu 16.04 ships Python 3.5, but you can install Python
3.7 on it. Or, you can skip Python 3.7 and install OCRmyPDF 7.x or older
- for that procedure, please see the installation documentation for the
version of OCRmyPDF you plan to use.
**Install system packages for OCRmyPDF**
.. code-block:: bash
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y software-properties-common python-software-properties
sudo add-apt-repository -y \
ppa:jonathonf/python-3.7 \
ppa:alex-p/tesseract-ocr
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y \
ghostscript \
libexempi3 \
libffi6 \
pngquant \
python3.7 \
qpdf \
tesseract-ocr \
unpaper
This will install a Python 3.7 binary at ``/usr/bin/python3.7``
alongside the system's Python 3.5. Do not remove the system Python. This
will also install Tesseract 4.0 from a PPA, since the version available
in Ubuntu 16.04 is too old for OCRmyPDF.
Now install pip for Python 3.7. This will install the Python 3.7 version
of ``pip`` at ``/usr/local/bin/pip``.
.. code-block:: bash
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py | sudo python3.7
**Install OCRmyPDF**
OCRmyPDF requires the locale to be set for UTF-8. **On some minimal
Ubuntu installations**, such as the Ubuntu 16.04 Docker images it may be
necessary to set the locale.
.. code-block:: bash
# Optional: Only need to set these if they are not already set
export LC_ALL=C.UTF-8
export LANG=C.UTF-8
Now install OCRmyPDF for the current user, and ensure that the ``PATH``
environment variable contains ``$HOME/.local/bin``.
.. code-block:: bash
export PATH=$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH
pip3.7 install --user ocrmypdf
